2.Jennifer Lopez also starred in the film which is significant because she and Ben were dating at the time. The movie is one of the few remaining testaments to their much talked-about relationship!

Before Gigli, Ben had made a respectable name for himself in the movie business with serious films like Good Will Hunting(for which he won an Oscar), and Pearl Harbor.

Given Ben's resume prior to Gigli, it confused critics and fans as to why he decided to star in a film about a goofy Los Angeles 'mobster' who is ordered to kidnap the mentally handicapped brother of his boss' rival. Pegged as a 'romantic-comedy,' Gigli failed to deliver on both the romance and the comedy.

He was the laughing stock of Hollywood when Gigli broke records at the Razzles, but now, a decade later, the actor/director/producer/writer is being heralded as the dissed darling of the 85th Academy Awards!

The world was FLUMMOXED this morning when Seth MacFarlane read off the nominees for best director without recognizing Ben's work on Argo!

Bradley Cooper, in particular, who was nominated for his performance in Silver Linings Playbook, thinks the dude got robbed!
